Here you should find a brief description of how the space was designed and is being used.

Previous under-utilized space, room was refurbished

MILAiS was designed for various forms of group work and collaborative learning. This space was designed from the level of learner's body movement and information exchange. All furniture are movable and do not obstruct the learner's movement. Learner can project images and exchange files without using any cables. Because of them, learner can concentrate on the group activities themselves.

General assignment Smart Classroom with flexible student seating (KI Learn2 seats). The Smart Classroom system accommodates a wide variety of teaching pedagogies. Through the convenient interface, faculty can choose between connecting their own technology or simply using one of the many technologies provided. Technology includes a video/data projector, built-in Windows and Mac computers, VGA and HDMI laptop connectivity, a Blu-ray player and document camera.

500 seat large lecture hall. Technology includes 3 video projectors, which can display 2 different sources. For example, you could have the Document Camera on the middle screen, with Powerpoint slides on the outer two screens. The Smart Classroom podium is equipped with both Mac and Windows computers (standardized with SDSU site-licensed software). The document camera helps faculty to reach a larger audience without visually diminishing the content (as sometimes happens when using whiteboards).

Within the remodeled College of Education, multiple labs and learning halls have outfitted VZ-C6 Ceiling Visualizers and Cynap Collaboration Solutions to optimize their courses and collaborative learning sessions. With the combined integration of Visualizers and Cynaps into their existing setups, many of these rooms have been revamped into open, collaborative learning spaces. One of these locations, the Mert Michael Classroom, contains round tables that can easily split into sections for breakout groups.
